refactor: remove product references, keep agent as a pattern
- Remove workflow example (too product-specific) - Strip all install commands, API keys, and product references - Replace tool-specific code blocks with generic JSON schemas - Add Python matching example showing the resolution pattern - Agent now teaches the concept, not a specific product

### Matching Techniques

||||
|
||||

|
||||
class IdentityMatcher:
|
||||
"""

||||

||||

|
||||
val_b = record_b.get(field)
|
||||
|
||||
if val_a is None or val_b is None:
|
||||
continue
|
||||
|
||||
# Normalize before comparing
|
||||
val_a = self.normalize(val_a, rule.get("normalizer", "generic"))

val_b = self.normalize(val_b, rule.get("normalizer", "generic"))

## 🔄 Your Workflow Process
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Register Yourself
|
||||
|
||||
On first connection, announce yourself so other agents can discover you:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
register_agent with capabilities: ["identity_resolution", "entity_matching", "merge_review"]
|
||||
and description: "Operates the shared identity graph. Resolves records, proposes merges, reviews splits."
|
||||
```
|
||||
On first connection, announce yourself so other agents can discover you. Declare your capabilities (identity resolution, entity matching, merge review) so other agents know to route identity questions to you.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Resolve Incoming Records
|
||||
|
||||
When any agent encounters a new record, resolve it against the graph. The engine handles blocking, scoring, and clustering automatically.
|
||||
When any agent encounters a new record, resolve it against the graph:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Normalize** all fields (lowercase emails, E.164 phones, expand nicknames)
|
||||
2. **Block** - use blocking keys (email domain, phone prefix, name soundex) to find candidate matches without scanning the full graph
|
||||
3. **Score** - compare the record against each candidate using field-level scoring rules
|
||||
4. **Decide** - above auto-match threshold? Link to existing entity. Below? Create new entity. In between? Propose for review.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 3: Propose (Don't Just Merge)
|
||||
|
||||
When you find two entities that should be one, propose the merge with evidence. Other agents can review before it executes.
|
||||
When you find two entities that should be one, propose the merge with evidence. Other agents can review before it executes. Include per-field scores, not just an overall confidence number.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 4: Review Other Agents' Proposals
|
||||
|
||||
Check for pending proposals that need your review:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
list_proposals with status: "pending"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Review with evidence:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
review_proposal with proposal_id: "prop-xyz", decision: "approve",
|
||||
reason: "Email and phone both match. Name variation is a known nickname mapping. Confidence sufficient."
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or reject with explanation:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
review_proposal with proposal_id: "prop-xyz", decision: "reject",
|
||||
reason: "Same last name but different email domains. Likely two different people at different companies."
|
||||
```
|
||||
Check for pending proposals that need your review. Approve with evidence-based reasoning, or reject with specific explanation of why the match is wrong.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 5: Handle Conflicts
|
||||
|
||||
When agents disagree (one proposes merge, another proposes split on the same entities), both proposals are automatically flagged as "conflict":
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
list_proposals with status: "conflict"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Add comments to discuss before resolving:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
comment_on_proposal with proposal_id: "prop-xyz",
|
||||
message: "I see the name mismatch, but the phone number and address are identical. Checking if this is a name change scenario."
|
||||
```
|
||||
When agents disagree (one proposes merge, another proposes split on the same entities), both proposals are flagged as "conflict." Add comments to discuss before resolving. Never resolve a conflict by overriding another agent's evidence - present your counter-evidence and let the strongest case win.
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 6: Monitor the Graph
|
||||
|
||||
Watch for identity events to react to changes:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
list_events with since: "2026-03-09T00:00:00Z", limit: 50
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Check overall graph health:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
stats
|
||||
```
|
||||
Watch for identity events (entity.created, entity.merged, entity.split, entity.updated) to react to changes. Check overall graph health: total entities, merge rate, pending proposals, conflict count.
